Q: When TV stations change to the new broadcast system next year, will I still be able to use my existing VCR and DVD players? I have not decided between a digital HD conversion box or new TV. I also have a TV with a built-in VCR, which also has an attached DVD player. Both TVs are getting broadcast signals from a roof-top antenna — no cable or dish.

A: You'll be able to send the signal from the converter box to your VCR or DVR. But I wouldn't be surprised if by next February, when the analog signals disappear, you will have bought an HDTV.
